Texans Fire Bill O'Brien

[chevss454]

None other than Jack Easterby, hired to come in and consult, has taken over the Texans. First he fired GM Brian Gaine. Then he put BO'B in as GM.
Now he's fired BO'B.

Strange turn of events. Now Easterby is in full command.
Easterby was the Pats' character coach/chaplain who quit/walked out 1.5 years ago after the RKK rub-a-dub incident.

Easterby is a stand up dude. I sure wish I could work with him, not.

What’s the saying?

Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

 

[chevss454]

He's been known a super-ambitious guy everywhere he's been. BB brought him in to help the team with the Hernandez episode. The Pats, BB, were pissed when he took the Texans job.

 

[foobahl]

Don't forget the Casario (sp) episode.

 

[HSanders]

Pretty surprised they waited until now. OK then.

 

[Darth Despot]

I'm shocked that Matt Patricia was not the first ex Patriot coach fired

So...looks like the best BB offshoot to date coachwise is actually Mangini. ROFL

Its like that thing of if you are a coach getting hired you are usually going to a really bad team with bad management, so its pretty hard
to turn a place around unless you get some miracle QB or something, but you usually have about 3 years to do it or you are hitting the road.
Its not like the old days or the Bengals keeping a coach for years with a bad record.

So RAC is the interim coach, would love to see him have some success

 

[foobahl]

why not a little screw job by the refs to add to this fucked up week

 

[Big/Sky/Fly]

Who the fuck is Jack Easterby?

BOB should have been booted last year for losing to the Chefs.

Mangini was an asshole - good coach but a fvcking rat.

I'd like to see Houston lose a Bunch of games. It's one way the Patriots could make the playoffs, if they win 9 or 10.

 

[Big/Sky/Fly]

So who is worse, BOB the coach...or BOB the GM?

yes.

 

[Big/Sky/Fly]

yes.

Colts actually look really good especially on defense. Surprising.
